lyrics

There is a city
Where the towers rise like mountains
But nobody walks within them
I am alone, but I know

Every road has led me to this place
And I'll leave my death behind to face
The Veil!



There is a forest
On the far side of the small stone wall
Where the souls of the lost and the dead
are doomed to fall
There was a time when the grave
was ruled by the light of day

But now the forest is a place where the dark and the shadows reign

There is a hole
Inside my chest
And on a moonlit summer night
A voice from deep inside it said:

"Tear the Veil
You hear my call"

My lonely hands destroyed it all
And now I've fled across the wall

There is a forest
where the light has come again
Hope will walk among the dead
as the fires begin to grow

As it changes
I know I'm changing too
I'm becoming something new
My skin begins to glow

Whatever I am today, I won't be tomorrow!



There is a city at the center of the world
hidden by the trees
Where the trains run through the night but
Nobody can say where they lead
And the windows have been darkened
while it's waited to see human life

Yeah, this city has been waiting for a soul to come and turn on the lights

There is a hole
Inside my chest
And on a lonely summer night
A voice from far beyond it said:

"You will grow
your Galaxy"

My eyes that pierce the Veil can see
The one to fill that hole is me

There is a city
Where the lights are turning on
and the rails stretch far beyond
to a world I've never known

And if I go,
I know there's no return
My body starts to burn
and I vanish into smoke

Whatever I am today, I won't be tomorrow!
